So I was down at my local shops the other day and I saw all these women's weekly cook books on sale for $5 each!!! Crazy eh? So what did I do? I bought 4 of them! Anyway in the 'family favourites' one, I found this recipe.
I have never been a huge fan of the sweet and sour pork you get from dodgy chinese takeaway restaurants, it's just always so oily and feels so bad for you, not to mention the lack of vegetables.
Anyway I saw on master chef they had to make sweet and sour pork and it looked delicious done the right way so I wanted to give it a go. So I was extra happy when I saw this recipe in one of my new bargain books.
It was seriously delicious! The pork was crispy but also juicy and the flavours of the sauce are so lovely. I could really taste the sweet and sour for a change. I would really recommend you try making it at home one day. Its so much better than the $6.50 cheap takeaway from Mr Wong or Dragon fountain takeaway when you feel depressed and want to eat dodgy chinese (when else do you want to eat dodgy chinese?)
Seriously, try it!
